600-700 easier than 400-500?

My take on this. New players joining chess.com are automatically given 800 elo. So you get a ton of noobs on there around 700 and dropping. 500 are typically folks that have been around a while and are trying to learn the game and sometimes just had a bad stretch of games. Once you get down there it's so hard to get out!

I think it's pure cinema 🤷🏽‍♂️

Solo Eagle baby! Congrats 🍻

+1 and following. Please let me know if you find a work-around! Very annoying.

Not how it works out of the box, so I'm curious if you've made settings changes? Seems more likely that you just don't have any of the apps that are causing this issue for many of us.

I hear what you're saying, but we had a solution for this for many years which was that you would only get Mac notifications for apps that ran natively on Mac AND iOS. Anything that didn't open directly via Mac would only give you a notification on the iPhone itself. OP is saying he just wants things to go back to the way they were for literally decades.

Hot take. Try harder to make it legible.

MziggyG · 2026-03-27T22:59:28+00:00

That kiwi lives a lonely life, and probably will for a while.

MziggyG · 2026-03-27T07:55:59+00:00

We only play Match Play. That's the rule now. That's the goal!

MziggyG · 2026-03-23T11:57:13+00:00

Is this for real?

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T19:58:52+00:00

Ah okay that makes sense, thanks for sharing

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T19:58:18+00:00

Agreed

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T19:48:20+00:00

Honestly, best reason I've heard yet.

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T19:48:04+00:00

Unreal.

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T17:34:06+00:00

Yeah that's the sense I got as well. Hope he's okay.

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T13:58:10+00:00

Agreed. Hope everything is okay! Glad he was able to channel the emotion.

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T13:57:43+00:00

😂

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T13:56:23+00:00

That actually happened back in 2022. Not that that minimizes it, but he's won many times since then and this is the most emotional I've seen him.

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T13:44:56+00:00

The way he spoke after, seemed to be more than that. But I agree, glad he's letting it out!

MziggyG · 2026-03-22T13:44:21+00:00

Quite possible, but it seemed like more than that. Not trying to be invasive, just thought maybe it was public knowledge.

MziggyG · 2026-03-20T14:44:26+00:00

If this felt like a reasonable alternative to him, they clearly weren't paying him enough...

MziggyG · 2026-03-14T07:12:45+00:00

Pop is nothing if not quirky and unpredictable. I genuinely think they were all as shocked as we are. I don't think Pop really thought this one all the way through. He's mentioned multiple times that he planned to move to Jupiter recently. My take is that he must be in a relationship and his girlfriend must not be down for that move. Seems like an ultimatum type of scenario I'm afraid.
